Today's Blind Items - The Nicest Celebrity - Anniversary Month
One of the questions asked most of me is which celebrities are horrible people. Coming in a close second is who is the nicest or the variation of someone seems nice, but are they nice. I know it might not seem like it from the blinds, but the vast majority of celebrities are really nice and understand fans make their fame and will stop what they are doing and interact with a fan. Eliminating celebrities who are friends of mine or who you would not guess, I will tell you who I think is the nicest celebrity I have met. Even though I have hung out with her multiple times, I wouldn't say we are friends. We know each other and see each other from time to time.
She is A list. OK, maybe A- list. She is an Academy Award winner/nominee. One time we were walking through Beverly Center and if she stayed out in the main area she would literally get stopped every twenty feet. Then when she would stop, people would see what the commotion was and that would create a bigger crowd. When I say crowd, I am talking 5 or 6 people, but it was pretty constant. This was a few years ago when Beverly Center had their version of a dollar movie theatre. It took a good 30 minutes of walking from the middle of the mall to the end where the theatres were. The thing is, she never stopped smiling. Ever. Pictures, autographs as she slowly made her way to the theatre. When we got there and bought our tickets she could have bailed and waited inside a fairly darkened theatre and no one would have bothered her. But, she stuck it out in line for another ten minutes with a bunch of other people coming up to her and she just kept going and going. When we did get inside the theatre, she did acknowledge that it can be exhausting. She said that she loved the fans and would never say no to anyone, but that sometimes you just want to get from point A to point B and sometimes that was difficult.
There was another time we were in this open area in between some buildings. Apparently some celebrity had been to the same spot 2 minutes earlier and had called in paps. They were hanging out waiting for the celebrity to come back out to get some more shots when they saw us. They swarmed which she does not usually get. In the midst of their swarming two families were trying to cross through the area and she went out of her way to go to them and apologize for all the commotion and chaos. She didn't have to do it. I don't think the families knew who she was but she did it anyway.
I could go on and on about her, but she is the one celebrity I find to be the same all of the time. People perceive her to be sweet and kind and she is exactly those things and more.

Renee Z?
Or Sandy B?
Hillary Swank?
Frances McDormand, Helen Hunt and Holly Hunter would fit too I think.
Reese Witherspoon
I personally think she seems to be a little darker than she appears. I saw a friend's private video once of her and zooey deschanel and a few other actresses that I can't remember in a hotel once. They were drunk and Reese's drunken personality was WILD and crazy and rambunctious and definitely the life of the party!
I've heard she's incredibly great and patient with her fans.
Sally Field
Jessica Chastain
I thought this, but is the rating too low? A friend went HS with her and said she was very nice (and the homecoming queen apparently)
Chastain
Frances McDormand is VERY nice and funny, smart and was so engaging at an event. One of my favorites!
Amy Adams
Susan Sarandon. She always struck me as nice.
Renee is very nice but really shy and I think would be freaked out by too much fan attention.
Sandra Bullock is not A- list. Renee is now A- list I guess but I think Enty would have made it clear that she was once higher on the list.
Lupita-2012 was the release year of 12 Years..... doesn't say FB but she seems absolutely to be one of the kindest celebs out there
Marisa Tomei
Octavia Spencer
My first thought was Julianne Moore probably because that's how I imagine her,lol....however,she lives in NYC so I don't know how often Enty would have the opportunity to 'hang out' with her.Plus,she's a solid A actress.
Hillary Swank...
Hasn't Enty claimed to be a friend of Renee's and sorta in love with her? So I guess it's her.
yup...from the old days in Austin,Texas...Renee was the subject of Enty's long 2 Part Blind Item #17 on 6/24/16.
Reese Witherspoon is my guess. I don't think some of the women named are recognized enough to draw crowds. Frances McDormand? Hillary Swank? I'm sure they can walk around pretty easily.
You all know what this means, don't you? Ent has been in papped pictures!
It wouldn't be hard to figure out who he is. He's from Austin, he hung around with Renee (and loves her), McConaughey (and hates him, though it could just be jealousy). Must have had something to do with Linklater.
Enty can have his Zellweger crush all he wants. Mary Kay Place has been the official Nicest Person in Hollywood for decades now, and well deserves the title.
Runner-up, male division, is David Hyde Pierce, of course.
(And yes, my references are horribly dated, I know that.)
I hope it's Renee because I *love* her, but if so, I am still dying to know: WHAT HAPPENED with her and Kenny Chesney?? That is THE Hollywood question I'd most want answered.
Anna Kendrick. Currently promoting her book.
I love when Renee Z has good press from a good friend. She just strikes me as a beautiful woman inside and out.
